Here, you will find various options to customize the Single Trip page. Each setting is described below with guidance on how to use them effectively.

Banner Layouts #

The “Banner Layouts” feature in the WP Travel Engine plugin allows users to customize the banner design on the single trip page. This feature introduces 7 unique banner layouts, giving site administrators the flexibility to enhance their site’s visual appeal and better align with their branding needs.

Under the Banner Layouts option, you can select one of the seven available layouts.

Below are the description and preview of each banner layouts:

a. Banner Layout 1 #

Layout 1 displays full-width image slider with navigation arrows. This layout allows users to browse through gallery images using the slider or navigation arrows. Additionally, users can view full-sized images by clicking the “Gallery” button located at the bottom-right corner, which opens the images in a Lightbox modal.

Recommended Image Size: 1920 by 800 pixels for optimal display.

The left section displays a large, featured image in its 324/284 aspect ratio, while the right section showcases a grid of smaller supporting images. These smaller images are ideal for highlighting trip details, destinations, or additional visuals.
